Same thing this morning....and that humming/whine noise was still on when I entered the garage. Something is running on the car that hadn't been until yesterday and it won't shut off.
Lost 9 miles last night

The cars do all sorts of things when we're not looking, I just keep it plugged in but maybe my solar plan is different than yours. Ours is the same rate no matter the time of day.
I had similar vampire drain over the past few days where I lost at least 10 miles in 1 day while the car was plugged in my garage and temperature didn't exceed 90 F. Something that seemed to have helped is turning off the AC and rebooting the car. I did a scroll wheel reset, then powered down the car from the menu and walked away for the night without waking it back up. I did that reset two nights ago and I lost 0 miles last night. I'm going to keep monitoring over the next few days.

I went out last night in the garage and it was on, and when I went out into the garage this morning to go to work it was on. I don't know if it was on all night but seems like it might have been.
I installed (2) abstract ocean 'T' puddle lights over the weekend, so I'm wondering if it is causing the electrical system an issue. I didn't see this drain or noise Monday or Tuesday though, just yesterday and today.
I'm going to remove those puddle lights and see if that solves it. It's the only thing i can think of. They must be pulling a stronger current / amperage than it can handle or something. It's the only thing I can think of, I've already turned off the overheat cabin thing. So nothing should be running.
